    Nothing brings me greater pleasure than discovering the perfect pair of workout leggings, a satisfying new set of handweights or a fitness machine that completely transforms my workouts. I've been testing activewear, fitness tech and wellness accessories for a decade so I know a thing or two about quality, value for money and sustainability credentials. When I recommend something, it's because I truly love it.

    Running

    Our fitness team has racked up the miles in a range of the best men's running shoes, women's running shoes and trail running shoes, all with the aim of finding the best footwear to take you from pavements to parks to places totally off the beaten track. Our regular running schedules also allow us to test other must-haves, such as running jackets, leggings, sunglasses and backpacks. So if you're looking to up your gear game, or treat that significant runner in your life, stick with us for tried and trusted suggestions.

    Home gym equipment

    Gone are the days when home gyms rarely extended beyond a rusty set of spinlock dumbbells. Nowadays there are myriad options to help you get fit without the gym, and our fitness team has tried the vast majority of them. We've tested the best treadmills, rowing machines, exercise bikes, dumbbells and kettlebells, as well as alternative fitness kit like the TRXsuspension trainer, putting each one through its paces as part of our own expansive exercise schedules. So, if something earns our seal of approval, you know it's going to be good.

    I firmly believe a gym membership shouldn't be a prerequisite for building fitness. Whether you're short on time or money, there are alternative ways to stay in shape which allow you to train any time, anywhere. Over the years, this belief has seen me explore all manner of methods for building strength, muscle and endurance sans-gym, including everything from gymnastic rings to kettlebells to the full spectrum of connected exercise machines. So, if you're after a more time- or cost-savy training solution, chances are I have some ideas.

    Yoga and pilates

    Our in-house experts are dedicated to yoga and Pilates in all its forms. From dynamic vinyasa flows to soothing yin yoga and leg-shaking wall Pilates sessions, they know everything there is to know about the right gear for the job. From leggings to mats, resistance bands to at-home reformer machines, the fitness and wellbeing team have tried everything, so whether you're a beginner or a master of flexibility, they've got you covered.

    Cycling

    Ironically, IndyBest's cycling experts can rarely be found spinning their wheels. Instead, you're more likely to find them wearing down the tyres of the latest trail, hybrid, foldable and e-bikes, while trialling the best cycling jackets, glasses and gloves. The end result? A wealth of information on top cycling gear ready to share, which they're happy to share with Independent readers via our handy buying guides.

    Men's activewear

    To test men's activewear, you need people who are exceptionally active. Up step: IndyBest's fitness and wellbeing team. These gym bunnies have turned their aversion to officewear into a force for good, testing out the best men's gym trainers, winter running jackets, joggers, shorts and more. Each product is forced to endure their varied weekly exercise routine, which is crammed full of running, CrossFit, Pilates, gymnastics, strength training, Olympic weightlifting, padel and any other exercise modality that takes their fancy. What that leaves is a collection of editor-approved activewear which is versatile, durable and fit for purpose.

    Women's activewear

    It's incredible just how much difference the fit of your activewear can make. The right level of support from your sports bra can make or break a session at the gym, and your leggings? The perfect length, a comfortable waistband and material that doesn't go see-through are non negotiables for a good workout. Our writers have tested every brand and style available to match you with the perfect line up for your chosen sport, as well as every accessory you could ever need.

    Training methods

    If there's a training method our fitness team hasn't tried, you can be sure of two things. Firstly, it's in the minority, and secondly, it's on our to-do list. Our movement-mad writers love experimenting with new modalities, and have tried everything from CrossFit and Olympic weightlifting to calisthenics and Pilates, all in the name of finding fun ways to stay in shape. They also regularly chat with authority voices from each discipline to provide top training tips, tricks and advice to help you take your workouts to the next level.
